About the Role
We are seeking a motivated and compassionate Therapy Technician to join our Naomi and Jack’s team on a permanent, part-time basis. As part of this role, you will work with babies, children, and young adults (BCYA) and their families, supporting therapists and delivering individual and group therapeutic interventions across Naomi House, Jack’s Place, and the hydrotherapy pool.
This position blends hands-on practical work with administrative support, meaning you’ll assist qualified therapists with treatments while also managing minor case loadings, liaising with external services, and handling IT-based tasks.
Key Responsibilities
You will be critical in helping deliver therapeutic care while ensuring the holistic well-being of service users. Key duties include:
Core Duties:
- Assist qualified therapists in administering therapeutic treatments (such as physiotherapy, functional task practice, Positioning support, and hydrotherapy) for BCYA with a range of needs, including neuromuscular, respiratory, neurological, and developmental conditions.
- Support BCYA and their families during respite, day service, symptom management, or end-of-life stay care at Naomi House or Jack’s Place.
- Liaise with external community services, including:
- Wheelchair and mobility support providers
- School services
- Community therapy teams
- Conduct monitoring and minor modifications to individual treatment plans, holistically considering physical, emotional, developmental, cognitive, and social factors.
- Lead joint sessions with therapists and manage outpatient-style independent caseloads.
- Build positive relationships with BCYA and families, encouraging engagement in therapy programs.
- Provide admin support for IT-based systems, including:
- Booking appointments
- Updating electronic patient records
- Tracking data and managing databases
